Is orzo a good low-carb option?

[DelishDish]

I'm on a quest to cut down on carbs and am considering swapping out some of my usual staples. Does orzo fit into a low-carb lifestyle, or is it better to avoid it altogether? Would love to hear your thoughts or suggestions!

Hi! I think orzo is great for many dishes, though if you’re watching carbs, it might not be the best option. Have you considered shirataki noodles?

Orzo might not be the best choice for a low-carb diet since it is made from wheat flour, which is high in carbohydrates. You might want to try cauliflower rice, which is a popular low-carb alternative.
